But 1) is not very practicable for the 0815 user 2) is just a more complicated way of releasing the source and 3) seem pretty paranoid ^_^

Its your project and no need to rush. But when it comes to keystroke logging a lot of people become pretty scared and it could help if some of the known coders in the community could take a look and say "Its save to use". Not saying its not at the current state :D

Yeah i kinda figured when i saw the sexy use of conditional CCK fields in the tutorial video. Looks very very good imo. Well done website.

The only suggestion i would make is : Use HighCharts for displaying the "you failed on macro here" tables. Just views tables is not very user friendly imo.

Anyway : Keep up the good work!

What does it means? Looks like some reference to German culture.

I cannot imagine that every player will set up Visual Studio to build client. May be community can select someone to build project and create installers.
But anyway it's not looks like a short term aim because this definitely will complicate bugfixes and development of new features.

Ohh, looks great probably I'll use HighCarts for this. Thank you!

Hi everyone, I've just updated version of application - bunch of fixes applied. Major fixes:

- fixed issue when probe cannot catch keypresses in starcraft while working well in other applications
- client didn't properly reconnect if somethings was wrong

Good news! We almost completed build orders notifications and will release it within a couple of days!

I found that there are lack of build orders with precise timings to smothly integrate with probe.

So I decided to convert some interesting/popular BO to time based format.

Right now I've completed Korean 3 Stalker Robo

It's turned out surprisingly easy even for me to create (and then execute from 1st try) time-based bo from replay (thank you András for sc2gears!)

I'm going to convert all build orders (except for stubs) from liquipedia to this format. And I will be really happy if someone can bring help

Do you think that it will be helpful to add these timings to liquipedia as I find them out?

@ ru.meta:

0815 was a standarized format for weaponcrafting within germany in WW2. Nowadays it is a synonym for a normal thing. Example: This newspaper has like 0815 articles. Means: This newspaper has articles every other newspeaper has too.

It's a nice idea, but I'll wait for an offline mode. Not so keen on this whole social media grabish and putting data out there for people to snipe. Looking at the brief intro I Can't see why the app needs to connect anywhere since its a simple metronome with a key press event anyway :-/

Not really, this tool doesn't do anything for you but helps you to train basic macro skills. Then your mind will be free to play:

- make decisions how to use your great economy and production powers
- play meta-games with opponent
- spent more time on micro-control

For me starcraft is likely about these things but not repeating cycles of unit and supply building.

If over-simplify what top pro gamers do - they play so much and basic skills become so natural. So "basic" and "regular" tasks require less "processor time" of mind. So player can use this time to do more important things.

I don't have got 8 hours per day to play. And I don't think that it's a cheat or unfair if someone's has.
So I see no reason to avoid use "computer approach" to help me grow up.

To be honest I wouldn't care if my opponent was using the program. All it does is help them macro better/check minimap. Ideally, my macro is going to be perfect anyway. If I lose, it's because I need to work on my macro. It's not like playing against a maphacker, where it's impossible to level the playing field.

Thank you. That what I tried to say - probe does not move you to the next floor. It's about growing up. Not rocket jumping.

Hi there!
Nice tool, really like it - it's just like personal coach behind via keypress and adjustible settings so it's just amazing.
But is there a way to set production hotkeys to anything else of 1-0+w? Becouse for me i use q+a+z for my production in game(took this idea from http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=209178 thread) and for now i just set voice notification per 30 sec.
And another question is how we can adjust volume of notifications(i like to play with music at the background and sometimes probe sound is not clear enought).
Thanks for this again, nice work.

As for hotkeys - yes we're going to add customization here. Please give your vote at uservoice forum

As for volume - I'll check if it's possible.

There is a mode "just notify me" that works as metronome but probe have more that this.
If you need just metronome - use "day[9] coacher" application or any real metronome.

There are several reasons why this application is online:

- I believe it's more convenient for user to have tiny client almost with no UI and web page opposite to having to update client manually several times (probe just looks like a simple application - we've fixed for about 30+ issues from release date). You see updates and fixes in web interface instantly.
- even if there is an error in probe - it will get fix from server and apply automatically
- you have a storage for your game data (yours data is private of course)
- you have ability to share and view shared build orders
- overall, such architecture allows us to develop and present features faster and be more flexible
